NEW!! Cabin in the Clouds ~ Easy Downtown Access w Parking!
Summary: This attic loft is ideal for dreamers to reset, reflect, and relax when decompressing from the hustle and bustle of D.C. life! Come stay in our beautifully renovated one-bedroom apartment with its own entrance, nestled at the top of a beautiful period home, perfect for any traveler.
The Space: What a treat once you have climbed to the top! Relax in this chic and stylish design scheme with airy open space, timber beams and high ceilings. We can comfortably sleep 4 guests with the following configuration: -Living Room space has a sofa bed that sleeps 2 -Private bedroom includes a Queen Size bed Stream to your heart`s content on the large TV allowing guests to unwind together, and catch their favorite shows! The full kitchen is complete with all of the essentials & appliances - the bijou dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace (with views of the horizon) or to enjoy a quick meal before heading out for the day. On the landing is a separate desk area in case you need some peace to work or take that unexpected work call. Guests can stroll down the iron staircase to the backyard, to discover a quiet, darling patio area! Awaken to a quiet breeze, undisturbed by the busy on-goings just outside your door.
Guest Access: The apartment at the top of a residence that has long-term tenants, it is a completely separate unit and does require access via 3 flights of stairs. A wonderful surprise when you reach the top but not well suited to those with mobility issues.
The Neighborhood: The apartment is in 16th St heights which borders Petworth, a newly trending and becoming popular with families and the younger DC crowd as it`s residential but has great access to downtown. There is a true sense of community here, and everyone looks out for each other. Porch culture reigns supreme and families pushing prams, and folks walking their dogs. You will find lots of great little eateries and coffee shops on 14th st, Georgia Ave and in Petworth. Fun facts about the neighborhood; Lincoln`s Cottage (off of Rock Creek Church Road), where President Lincoln used to vacation when he wanted to get away from the city, is one of this neighborhood’s hidden gems. The nearby Rock Creek Cemetery dates back to 1712; both the Cemetery and the Armed Forces Retirement Home are on the National Register of Historic Places. The Fitzgerald Tennis Center is just a short stroll away.
Getting Around: We are nestled between two metro stations (Georgia Ave-Petworth 1 mile away, green and yellow lines, and Fort Totten metro, where you can catch the red line). Our neighborhood is full of transportation options! We`re a 20 minute drive from the White House (Uber`s are plentiful in the area), but there are buses that can take you directly to the National Mall in 35/40 minutes.
There is a bus stop 1 minute away from the home that can take you to Metro Center Station (red line). From there you`re just 3 stops from Union Station, which is nestled among the major sights, including the U.S. Capitol Building, the Smithsonian Museums, and the National Mall. Bus lines in the immediate vicinity (70/79/52/54 within two blocks). The S2 or S4 bus can have guests on the White House steps in half an hour.
Uber and Lyft taxi`s are plentiful in the area as well (and we provide coupon codes to take $$ off)! Distance to airports via car: DCA - ~25 min; Dulles - ~51 min; BWI - ~53 min.
Other Things to Note: The apartment at the top of a residence that has long-term tenants, it is a completely separate unit and does require access via 3 flights of stairs. A wonderful surprise when you reach the top but not well suited to those with mobility issues.

We enjoyed our stay here while visiting our daughter. The apartment was spacious, clean and comfortable. Perfect for the few days we were there. Communication with the host was very good and helpful. Location was good. Stairs were fun to navigate but we did fine. ;) would recommend for someone needing to stay in DC proper.

Hi Kristen, We appreciate your feedback. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to host you, we hope to welcome you back in the future!
It was very cute, clean, and we got a little exercise walking up the stairs! We came up for the Citi Open and the property was extremely close to the court. We did have to get a parking pass for the street, but the owner was very kind and brought it up. The neighborhood also has a few great restaurants and if you wanted to go into DC 14th St is right there.

Hi Jamiyla, Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. It's great to know the space and the location were a good fit for you. It was lovely to host you and we hope to welcome you back!
This was the perfect location for us. It was close to family as well as easy access to the Metro. There was never a problem finding parking on the street. And it also increased our step count with all the stairs, but that did not bother us.
We loved this place. It’s a very attractive space with everything we wanted—lots of windows and several skylights, cozy living room, kitchen with everything, nice bathroom with a big tub, and an excellent bed with a foam mattress. I slept so well on it and had no back pain the next day. We didn’t use the washer and drier.The outside steps aren’t bad; we are late 60’s and 70’s and handled them with no problems. And the house and neighborhood are lovely. We’ll happily stay again.
